Sport, health and wellbeing research and innovation hub

The sport, health and wellbeing hub recognises the rising prominence of sports science and health related disciplines at Solent.

The hub draws upon a rich background of expertise in these areas and represents a developmental phase for both the sports science, health and development cluster (from which a submission to the Research Excellence Framework (REF) was submitted in 2014), and the health and wellbeing network, which now includes members from local government, the NHS, and academics from other UK institutions.

These two complementary initiatives have been brought together to foster the interchange of expertise and innovation.
